## PKI certificate generation forwarding regression
A bug introduced in Vault 1.8 causes certificate generation requests to the PKI secrets engine made on a performance
secondary node to be forwarded to the cluster's primary node. The resulting certificates are stored on the primary node,
and thus visible to list and read certificate requests only on the primary node rather than the secondary node as
intended. Furthermore, if a certificate is subsequently revoked on a performance secondary node, the secondary's
certificate revocation list is updated, rather than the primary's where the certificate is stored. This bug is fixed
in Vault 1.8.8 and 1.9.3.
Certificates issued after the fix are correctly stored locally to the performance secondary.
